Does it traverse corporate firewalls? I use appear.in a lot, but all users must be either inside the firewall (VPN works) or outside the firewall, there cannot be a mix.
- hardwaresofton 8y agoBTW appear.in went login-only sometime recently (I think? I used it yesterday and was surprised), no more free anonymous rooms :( jitsi meet still has free anon rooms though

- j1elo 8y agoappear.in went login-only very recently, and they only allow for a single room name, which is a pain in the * (although it's free so I can't complain...) I'm using talky.io more since the change. Works pretty well, and they allow to start the call with audio only, which is something appear doesn't do.
- hardwaresofton 8y agoAhhh -- yeah, I didn't blame them too much, since of course they need to monetize somehow or maybe even were being crushed under the server load (giving bad service even for free might piss off people or invite bad press). In the end a bunch of these companies are really just using WebRTC under the covers + some improvements/management on their side, so they should be avoiding most of the load (especially since most of them say they can't support >4 people in a room or whatever since that's the traditional limitation of truly p2p webrtc implementations). thanks for the pointer to talky.io, I also took note of some of the other suggestions in this thread, will be using them as well.
